Answer:

Approximately 1% of the Earth's radius is represented by the crust.

Explanation:

Earth is composed of three different layers with different compositions-

The first layer of the earth is the Earth's crust which is brittle and very thin.

The other layers or shells are mantle and the core. These two layers have almost same thickness but the mantle occupies the larger volume of about 84% while the core occupies about 15% of the total volume.

Therefore, crust represents about only 1% of Earth's radius.

the upthrust (this is the upward vertical force exerted on an object in fluid)in the water equals the weight of the body in water it floats.
